PREFACE 

The territory west of the Rocky Mountains known as the Pacific 
Coast is still in the early stages of its making. It is only a few years 
since population has grown to any considerable extent. The people 
who are settling in these states today are making history just as those 
hardy pioneers who fought their way over deserts and mountains and 
plains made it fifty years ago in the face of tremendous obstacles con- 
quering them as they arose. 

During the last few years laws have been placed upon the statute 
books in the Western States that have attracted and won the admiration 
of the world. The cause of humanity has fared better in the West than 
in any other part of the globe. Civilization has made greater strides. 
It has been the history of the human race that the pioneers have been 
the reformers, and it is natural that the Pacific Coast should be looked 
to to produce America's greatest men. 

The reading of the lives of great men has ever been stimulating to 
patriotism — their deeds the most powerful factor in cheering and inspir- 
ing the rising generations. With such a record of achievement in the 
last two decades that the men and women of the Pacific Coast can boast, 
it is indeed worth while that their histories be permanently recorded. 

It has been the policy of the compilers of WHO'S WHO ON THE 
PACIFIC COAST — a policy that has been closely adhered to — to include 
in it sketches of none but those men and women who are at the helm 
in the affairs of this section of the country; the leaders of life and 
thought, — the great architects, the conquering engineers, the captains of 
finance and industry, the men of the bar who have enlightened the 
nation with their erudition and wisdom, and the foremost men of medi- 
cine, letters, science and art. 

As educators, they occupy places second to none; as composers, 
artists, authors and poets, their fame has gone broadcast; as builders 
of cities, they have set a new pace in architecture; as statesmen, they 
have attained great prominence; as men of medicine, they have con- 
tributed to the advancement of science, and as merchants, they have 
illumined the marts of trade. 



The book contains more than three thousand seven hundred 
sketches. Of the five thousand who responded to requests for data, it 
was found that about twelve hundred displayed no distinguishing fea- 
tures that entitled them to a place in its pages. It was the rule to in- 
clude only those who are representative of the communities in which 
they live, or who had especially distinguished themselves in their occu- 
pations or professions. 

As presented, this volume contains a greater number of living 
notables of the West than anything of the kind heretofore issued. It 
is not possible, however, in a work of this nature to include in it at the 
beginning all who are entitled to recognition. It is not claimed, there- 
fore, that the work is complete in this first issue. In future biennial 
editions a more thorough canvass for eligible names will be made and 
any suggestions of names or methods whereby the book may be 
improved will be appreciated. 

Abbreviations which have been used are intended to be self-explana- 
tory. None of them bave been carried to extremes, so that the reader 
will not be aggravated and annoyed by having to translate the sketches 
by reference to an index.

(She died In 1910.) Children: Paul. 
Grifling, Philip and Lucy. Formed lial)its 
of hard work early in life, and in 1S4S, 
entered employ of a Buifalo, N. Y., book 
store ; four years later, he was sent by 
his employer to establish a publishing- 
house in California, in which enterprise 
he was eminently successful, the busi- 
ness becoming the largest west of Chicago. 
While so engaged, his attention was 
turned to the rapid changes going on 
about him and the wealth of historical 
material which was wasted and lost, and 
without any thought of its utilization, this 
he began to gather and store. This work 
was continued for over forty years. Eu- 
rope and America were searched, every 
capital in both countries several times vis- 
ited, purchases made and archives copied. 
The entire Pacific Coast was carefully ex- 
ploited and narratives taken from the 
mouths of hundreds of living witnesses. 
In 1861, with a library of 16,000 books, 
maps and manuscripts (afterwards in- 
creased to 60,000, when in 1905, it passed 
to the Univ. of Cal.), Mr. Bancroft began 
the work of collaboration, sorting, sift- 
ing, and classifying, which work occupied 
about twenty men for thirty-five years, as 
fresh material was constantly coming In. 
All this time, all over the ground covered 
by his woi'k, which was from Alaska to 
Panama west of the Rocky Mountains, his 
assistants were at work copying archives 
and taking dictation ; Mr. Bancroft mean- 
while -being engaged in writing his history, 
which was divided into sections, each com- 
plete in itself, and the whole comprising : 
"Native Races of the Pacific States," 5 
vols. ; "History of Central America," 3 
vols. ; "History of Mexico," 6 vols. ; 
"North Mexican States and Texas," 2 
vols. ; "Arizona and New Mexico," 1 vol. ; 
"Colorado and Wyoming," 1 vol. ; "Utah 
and Nevada," 1 vol. ; "Northwest Coast," 
2 vols. ; "Oregon," 2 vols. ; "Washington, 
Idaho and Montana," 1 vol. ; "British Co- 
lumbia," 1 vol. ; "California Pastoral," 1 
vol. ; "California Inter Pocula," 1 vol. ; 
"Popular Tribunals," 2 vols. ; "Essays and 
Miscellany," 1 vol. ; "Literary Industries," 
2 



1 vol. Other works are "The Book of 
the Fair," "The Book of Wealth," "Re- 
sources of Mexico," "The New Pacific," 
"Retrospection," etc. His work has im- 
pressed itself upon the literature of the 
world, being the original source for all the 
information given ; it is probably the most 
extensive literary work ever undertaken 
by a single individual, and it gives to 
each of the Pacific States and nations a 
more complete history of its early affairs 
than is enjoyed by any other country.

public schools of New York, by privatej 
teachers and by night study ; speaks Eng- 
lish, Italian, French and Spanish. Mar- 
ried, Romilda Bottos, Sept 12, 1872, at 
Chiavari, Liguria, Italy. His father, a 
farmer, took him to New York when he 
was 4 years old. At the age of 10, he 
commenced peddling toys on New York 
ferry boats. At 12, he went to Califor- 
nia, and was employed as a clerk in 
grocery store. After few years of great 
attention aftid activity in business, he was 
given a fourth interest in the firm. Later 
on he became sole proprietor of the insti- 
tution, in which he was successful for 30 
years, when he sold the business. In 1875, 
he entered into the management and be- 
came Secretary of five Mutual Building 
and Loan Associations in San Francisco. 
In 30 years, he received from members of 
these meritorious institutions, $6,500,000. 
— principally from wage earners, which 
served to build for those having families, 
2,500 homes, costing $5,000,000, — and the 
non-borrowers received $1,500,000 in casn, 
with a good rate of interest on their de- 
posits, which served in many instances 
as foundations for their future fortunes. 
In 1881. he organized on the co-operative 
plan, the Italian-Swiss Agricultural Col- 
ony, purchased 1,500 acres of land, which 
then supported two Englishmen and 500. 
sheep, and now gives profitable employ- 
ment to over 2.000 families. He set out 
the first wine grapes of fine qualities 



ON THE PACIFIC COAST

from Franco and Italy in California, 
which have produced as fine wine as the 
best produced in Europe, and lately the 
Colony has been making, with the assis- 
tance of a French expert, the identical 
Champagne which is produced at Kheims, 
France. The wines and the champagne 
of the Colony received the "Grande Prix" 
at the International Exposition at Turin, 
Italy, in 1911. The total amount paid in 
by the colonists is $160,000 (the net as- 
sets of the Colony are now, 1912, $2,000,- 
000), which has been paying a regular 
dividend of G% per annum on $1,500,000 
for over ten years. In 1899, he organized 
the Italian-American Bank, of which he 
was elected President, with paid up capital 
of $250,000, — since increased to $750,000, 
and has now assets amounting to over 
$5,000,000. On July 7, 1904, he was 
Knighted by the King of Italy. In 1906, 
he received the only gold medal given to 
any person in the United States offered 
by the International Exposition of Milano 
to Italian-born persons who had been 
most useful to the country of their adop- 
tion. Served ten years as President of the 
Manufacturers and Producers Assn. of 
California, and several years as President 
of the California Promotion Committee. 
Has written several books on true tem- 
perance, showing that the only way to 
remove the evil of drunkenness is to edu- 
cate the people to use wine at their meals. 
Now President. Italian- American Bank ;
